{"product_id":"fisher-f70-metal-detector","title":"Fisher F70 Metal Detector","description":"\u003ch2\u003eFisher F70 Metal Detector: The 13 kHz Sweet Spot\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoin machines around 7 kHz go quiet on small brass and fine jewelry. Dedicated gold machines at 19 kHz and up chatter on every hot rock in the county. The Fisher F70 lives deliberately between them: 13 kHz is hot enough for thin hammered coins, small relics, and even small gold, yet calm enough for all-day park and field hunting. That one engineering decision is why the F70 has stayed in serious detectorists' rotations for years while flashier machines came and went.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the F70\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree reasons, and none of them are on the big dealers' thin pages. First, information: the F70's large LCD continuously shows ground mineralization and battery condition while you hunt, so you know when the ground is lying to you instead of guessing. Second, control: GroundGrab computerized ground balance sets the machine to your soil with a touchpad press, and Discrimination plus Autotune all-metal modes cover trashy parks and wide-open pasture with the same machine. Third, feel: Fisher builds the F70 as one of the lightest, best-balanced detectors in its class, with a foam elastomer grip and locking collars that kill coil-cable rattle, the small thing you notice in hour four of a hunt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe F70 also buys you into a real ecosystem: aftermarket makers like Detech build large and specialty search coils for the F70 and F75 platform, so the machine grows with you instead of capping out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe F70 carries a 9.75 in (25 cm) waterproof concentric elliptical coil for crisp target ID and pinpointing. Both are waterproof for creek edges and rainy permissions; the control housing is not submersible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFisher F70\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating frequency\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGround balance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGroundGrab computerized touchpad\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSearch modes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiscrimination and Autotune (all metal)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDisplay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLarge LCD, continuous mineralization and battery readout\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSearch coil\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9.75 in (25 cm) open-frame waterproof concentric elliptical\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFoam elastomer, locking collars\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 years, Fisher Research Labs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBuilt\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFisher F70 control housing and pole assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9.75 in (25 cm) waterproof concentric elliptical search coil with hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFisher 5 year factory warranty (First Texas Products)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadphones and batteries not included (per Fisher packaging)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHistory Seekers is an authorized Fisher dealer.

The F75 adds a larger 11 in Bi-Axial coil standard, more advanced processing, and sits a step up in price. The F70 delivers most of that field performance for less, which is exactly why Fisher kept both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the Fisher F70 find gold?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can hit small gold at 13 kHz and Fisher markets it for prospecting among its uses. It is a multi purpose machine first; for dedicated nugget hunting, step to a Gold Bug 2 or a pulse induction machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Fisher F70 waterproof?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe search coil is waterproof for creek edges and shallow rinsing.
